The only storage option I'm aware of is a top case that mounts to the back rack.
In parts 200S and Grand Vista and my motorcycles 2 CS BMW'S and one GS BMW.

Sold-32 Kymco scooters of various sizes this summer.

Might try googling, binging, yootoobing etc. for photos of your scooter.

If someone has done it - they'll be showing it off on the internet, somewhere!

You could look for a sidecar if you need more storage. There are some pics on forum of sidecars.

You could always use soft saddle bags but I'm not aware of any hard panners available or mounting systems for scooters. The top mounted cases seem to be the most popular option.

haah sidecar... ya indeed. well i found some photos with side cases , but with no information about it , also i use a givi blade top case 47 l.  I used saddlebags with straps but its kinda exhausting to make them stable . Anyways thank you all for the answers. Greetings from Greece

Shad and Givi make racks and box's for your bike. Mounts behind passenger seat. Sizes up to around 50-55 liters. Shad is cheaper. Have seen pictures of side hard bags, small ones looking like Givi? But was a picture from someone in Germany if I remember right?
